The pressure P, of a gas varies inversely with its volume, V. Pressure is measured in units of Pa. Suppose that a particular amount of a gas is initially at a pressure of 84 Pa at a volume of 36 L. If the volume is expanded to 216 L, what will the new pressure be?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: y = k/x is the INVERSE function equation, where k is the constant of variation.
Using Pressure and Volume: P = k/V
The first step is to find k, the constant of variation. This number will not change in the equation for finding volume or pressure.
Using the given data:
 84 = k/36
multiply both sides by 36.
3024 = k so the equation is P = 3024/V
P = 3024 / 216
P = 14

–7.12 = –4.8 + x



A.


–11.92


B.


–11.2


C.


–2.32


D.


2.32

Answers

so just remember tha tyou can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides (except divide by 0) so
-7.12=-4.8+x
add 4.8 to both sides since -4.8+4.8=0 so it cancels
4.8-7.12=x
simplify
4.80-7.12=-2.32
-2.32=x
the naswer is C
-7.12 = -4.8 + x

-7.12 = x - 4.8

Add 4.8 on both sides

x = -7.12 + 4.8

x = -2.32

Your final answer is C. -2.32.

How many factors in the expression 8(x +4) (y +4) (z 2 + 4z + 7) have exactly two terms?

Answers

From the expression 8(x +4) (y +4) (z 2 + 4z + 7),
the factors are 8, (x+4), (y+4), (z^2 + 4z + 7) since each of these factors, when you divide that to the whole expression won't give a remainder.


Answer:

Only 2 factors have exactly two terms i.e, (x+4)(y+4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Expression 8(x+4)(y+4)(z^2+4z+7)

To find : How many factors in the expression have exactly two terms?

Solution :

Expression8(x+4)(y+4)(z^2+4z+7) cannot be further factorized.

Now, We count the terms in each factor.

1) Factor- 8

Only 1 term i.e, 8 itself.

2) Factor- x+4

Two terms .i.e., x and 4

3) Factor- y+4

Two terms .i.e., y and 4

4) Factor- z^2+4z+7

Three terms .i.e., z^2, 4z and 7.

Therefore, Only 2 factors have exactly two terms i.e, (x+4)(y+4).

What is the sum of 10 cubed and 25 squared?

Answers

The sum is 1625.

Answer in Words: One thousand and six hundred twenty-five.

The cube of 10 is 1000.

10 X 10 = 100 (square of ten)
100 x 10 = 1000 (cube of ten)

The square of 25 is 625.

25 x 25 = 625 (square of 25)

Therefore, 1000 + 625 = 1625

the sum is 1625

The graph of an inequality has an open circle at 3.9, and the ray moves to the right. What inequality is graphed?

Answers

Answer:

The required inequality is x > 3.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The closed circle means that the set contain that extreme.

For closed circle we use the inequality "≤" or "≥"

The open circle means that the set does not contain that extreme.

For open circle we use the inequality "<" or ">"  

Here, it is given that the graph has an open circle, therefore the required inequality should be "<" or ">"

If the ray moves right, in the usual notation, the real numbers increase to the right, if it moves to left the real numbers decreases.

It is given that the ray moves to right that means the set of numbers bigger than 3.9, that does not contain the number 3.9

Hence, the required inequality is x > 3.9

Where x is any number greater than 3.9.

The answer would be x > 3.9

Which is the area of a circle with a radius of 5 units? (use 3.14 for )?

Answers

Answer:

The area of circle is 78.5 units².

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the circle is defined by the formula A = π r²

Here r = radius of the circle and value of π = 3.14

Now by putting these values in the formula  we can get area of the circle.

A = (3.14) × 5²

A = 3.14 × 25

A = 78.5 units²

The area of circle is 78.5 units²

The area of a circle is A=πr². 
Since π is about 3.14 we can substitute that into the equation.
So A=3.14×r²
We can substitute the given radius for r.
A= 3.14 × 5²
When a number is squared, or has the two over it, we multiply it by itself. 
5 × 5= 25
A= 3.14 × 25
Simplify this and the area of the circle is about 78.5
A≈78.5
